Changing Sources

You can connect and configure a variety of video and audio sources as input
devices to NewsEdit LT, which is normally done by your newsroom engineer.
See “Adding Video Sources to NewsEdit LT” on page 34 if you need to add a
source.

You can also configure a non-remote source, such as a microphone or a router,
as an input source and specify the tracks to select when using that input source.

To change a source:

1. Press

2

to select the Source Tool.

2. Select a source from the drop-down menu.

The image in the viewing monitor changes to reflect the new source.

Using Auxiliary Input

You can also connect an auxiliary source as an input for creating sequences,
which is helpful if you are using an A-B switch for controlling your sources.

When you enable auxiliary input, NewsEdit LT disables deck control from the
Timeline and your keyboard so you can use the device’s external controls.

To use auxiliary input:

1. Press

2

to select the Source Tool.

2. Click the

Use Aux Input

button.

The deck controls on NewsEdit LT gray out; you can use the external
controls of the auxiliary device.
